Its not a big problem, but I feel that the addition of LaTeX-based editor to the site's comment section could improve the quality of discussion in the comment section of any topic, quite well.
Most of the leading forum based math-science websites make use of it, so it is needless to speak about the popularity and usefulness of the tool. It will help convey the queries or thoughts much easily (especially in the case of topics related to maths).
Hi there!
Thanks for writing in with your idea regarding the LaTeX based editor! I believe I answered your request in the ticket you submitted. It will be taken into consideration :)
Thanks again for your interest in improving Khan Academy :)
All the best,

This would be highly appreciated. JaniceHolz consider bumping, I imagine you'd like this as well.
LaTeX capabilities in the comment section would be amazing. It can be extremely difficult to help Learners with long division or complicated fractions with the current text-only posts. It would also make it much easier to help with exponents. (I can only imagine how helpful it would be for anything with integrals - I've been mostly answering 6th grade math.)
Hello everyone!
I completely agree that integrating LaTeX formatting into our discussions and materials would have useful applications, especially in those advanced mathematics courses.
Not only that, but it would also help foster more professional-looking comments and useful replies.
Thank you all for considering this suggestion! I have pushed for this feature request.
